The Old Lady Speaks, Episode 132: Juve come crashing back down to earth

On a night in which Juventus had the chance to show that it belonged in the Scudetto race, Max Allegri’s squad went out against Napoli and suffered its worse loss in three decades, falling 10 points behind the league leaders in the process.

On this week’s episode of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss:

• OOF.
• Takeaways from Juventus’ dismantling at the hands of Napoli — including Napoli is a really, really good team and they are everything that we wish Juventus could play like, maybe this loss to Napoli is something that could bring the heat back to Max Allegri’s seat as manager, and the issue of Federico Chiesa and where Allegri is going to play him.
• We play a little game: What’s one word to describe Juventus’ performance against Napoli?
• Where Max Allegri got it wrong against Napoli.
• What the heck is Max Allegri going to do with Federico Chiesa, his team’s best player who doesn’t really have a spot in the 3-5-2 formation that Allegri is dead set on using right now.
• Why has Allegri suddenly gone away from using the likes of Nicolo Fagioli and Fabio Miretti after they were a big reason why Juve went on their eight-game winning streak.
• Are we worried about Bremer? (Hint: No, we aren’t.)
• Twitter questions!
